Ryan Phillippe didn’t wait for a DNA test to confirm whether or not he’s the father of Alexis Knapp’s baby. After In Touch exclusively reported earlier this year that Alexis was pregnant with Ryan’s baby, Alexis gave birth to a nearly 8-pound baby girl that she named Kai on July 1, and Ryan was in the delivery room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Alexis was due to give birth a week before, but on June 30, doctors induced labor so she could have the baby. “It was a smooth delivery if a little late,” a pal says.

Although the actor has yet to discover if he is the baby’s biological father, that didn’t stop him from spending the final weeks of Alexis’ pregnancy helping her prepare for the birth. “Ryan took Alexis to her last doctor’s appointments and was there in the hospital when she gave birth,” a friend says. “He’s waiting for the DNA test to see of he’s the father, but he’s acting like he is.”

“Ryan is aware of the situation [and] totally prepared to take responsibility should the child be his.”

Wonder if Ryan is the father!?

In Touch, People

On Monday, Ryan Phillippe was photographed in Los Angeles for the very first time with Alexis Knapp, his very pregnant ex-girlfriend. Phillippe and the model-actress, who dated on and off last year, were snapped picking up cold beverages at a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf before heading into an obstetrician’s office. Phillippe then dropped off the first-time mom-to-be at her home.

Back in March, Us Weekly was first to break news that Knapp was expecting — and had announced to pals that ex Phillippe (they split for good in September 2010) was the father.

The Lincoln Lawyer actor (dad to Ava, 11, and Deacon, 7, with ex-wife Reese Witherpsoon) has remained mum his ex’s talked-about pregnancy. “He doesn’t know if he’s the father,” one insider told Us, adding that he plans to take a paternity test. “If it’s his, he’ll take responsibility.”

So Undercover star Knapp, meanwhile is “really excited to be a mom,” another insider said.

She has similarly not spoken publicly about her baby-to-be, who is reportedly due soon. “Alexis has maintained her silence and will continue to do so,” her rep told Us in March. “She continues to appreciate the love and support of her family and friends.”

After seven months together, Amanda Seyfried and Ryan Phillippe have called it quits – again, a source tells Us Weekly.

“It was mutual,” the source says. “They were never fully committed.”

After meeting at Kate Hudson‘s Halloween party last October, the pair first called it quits in February.

“They were always on and off,” adds the source. “They were always seeing other people.” Still, when reports surfaced in March that Phillippe, 36, was father of his ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp‘s baby, due this month, Seyfried, 25, stuck by him.

But it’s anything but acrimonious post-split, says the pal. “There’s no bad blood. They’re cool.”

Is Ryan Phillippe so fed up with the paparazzi that he’s quiting acting?

The actor spoke with the NY Post at the premiere of his new movie “The Bang Bang Club” on Friday night, and admitted that he’s so sick of the paparazzi, he was thinking about calling it quits on his 20-year-old acting career.

“I think I’m going to end my acting career,” he told the Post. “I’m so introverted. I’m ready to be behind the scenes. I’m 36, but I’ve been doing this for 20 years.”

He could be sick of the cameras because he has either dated – or been married to – some of the hottest women in Hollywood. He was married to Reese Witherspoon, and is currently dating Amanda Seyfried.

But…..he’s not ready to quit for good. Access Hollywood reports that an unnamed source says that the comments were taken out of context, and that Phillippe is looking to expand his behind-the-scenes efforts, along with continuing to do some acting.

Actor Ryan Phillippe is so proud to have 11-year-old Ava and 7-year-old Deacon as his children.

When Ryan was asked what he loves most about being a father at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of The Bang Bang Club, he was very enthusiastic. “Everything! Everything! I can’t pick one thing!”

In the film, Ryan, 36, portrays a real-life combat photographer who covered the unrest in post-apartheid South Africa in the early ’90s. At home, his life is much simpler, as he balances the pressures of fame to create a good life for his kids. “It’s pretty easy,” Ryan said. “I don’t work all the time, so months go by when I’m at home with the kids full time. It’s not that much of a challenge.”

It’s been an eventful year for the handsome actor. Reese recently wed Hollywood agent Jim Toth, and Ryan is rumored to have moved on with girlfriend Amanda Seyfried, 25. But controversy struck again when ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp revealed she was pregnant with Ryan’s child in March. Until the baby is born in June, Ryan is reportedly waiting for a paternity test to confirm that he is indeed the father. But The Bang Bang Club’s director, Steven Silver, is fully convinced that Ryan will handle all of his challenges with strength and dignity. “Ryan is tough as hell,” Steven told In Touch. “He’s had a lot of stuff thrown at him, and he just handles it.”

Guess Amanda Seyfried isn’t bothered by the fact that her boyfriend, Ryan Phillippe is about to become a dad – by his ex-girlfriend – because the happy couple stepped out yesterday for a jog in the Hollywood Hills!

The couple began dating last October, and have seemed to have a rocky – on/off relationship. But looks like they’re doing good, considering Ryan’s ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp has come forward claiming she’s 7 months pregnant with his baby. Knapp, 21, and Phillippe, 36, dated for a couple months last year (long enough to conceive a baby, I guess!).

Sources say he doesn’t “know if he’s the father”, but if he is, he’ll “take responsibility.”

Ryan seems to have the support of current girlfriend Amanda, and ex-wife Reese Witherspoon. “Reese has been really supportive,” another insider says. “She knows that Ryan is a good dad and she respects that.”

When pregnant actress Alexis Knapp announced that she was carrying Ryan Phillippe’s child at a Hollywood bash in mid-February, it was a complete shock to everyone — including the alleged dad-to-be!

A source tells the new Us Weekly that Phillippe (who wasn’t present at the bash) was blindsided when he heard second-hand about Knapp’s very public bombshell. “Alexis hadn’t even talked to Ryan before that party,” a second source says.

As UsMagazine.com first reported on Monday, the Lincoln Lawyer actor, 36, “doesn’t know if he’s the father,” the first source says, but plans to take a paternity test. (He and Knapp dated on and off for several months before calling it quits in September 2010.)

“If it’s his, he’ll take responsibility.”

One gal in his corner? His ex-wife and mom to his children, Reese Witherspoon!

“Reese has been really supportive,” the first source says. “She knows that Ryan is a good dad [to Ava, 11, and Deacon, 7] and she respects that.”
